FIFO works fine, though I sort and prioritize my peps according to their expiration date.

Isn't it the case that one originates from the other?

When all your vials come from the same supplier, that approach works. My situation is different, though — I source from multiple places, which means the expiry dates can vary from one batch to another.

I see what you mean, though honestly I can't recall ever noticing an expiration date on any of the kits I've had.

I checked just now and located my kit cases. After looking through a handful, I came across one that has a 3 year expiration. I'll go through the remaining ones later.

I follow fifo, though my purchases happened to line up with how I'd use them — bought over roughly 6 months:

T 30 (9 kits)

T40 (3 kits)

T50 (3 kits)

T60 (3 kits)

R-30 (2 kits)

R-50 (2 kits)

R-140 (1 kit)

So it just worked out that the order I bought in matched the order I'd probably go through them.

You’ve got some catching up to do.

That's awesome!....

yeah, please don't push me on this. I have a habit of hoarding. I keep it under control, but just barely.

GLP-1s have taken away my urge to shop.

I no longer go thrift shopping or use retail therapy

Ha, there's nothing better than a proper rummage in a thrift store!

I went back and checked all my kits again — partly to verify, partly to reassure myself I haven't lost it, haha — and here's what I noticed: vendors that aren't gray and put their own stickers on the vials include an expiry date, but the ones that arrive with no labeling show nothing. On top of that, when I buy individual vials rather than full kits, they usually carry the vendor's label with an expiration date.

By the time you finish all that Tirzepatide, retirement will have arrived Since I have never pinned Reta, I cannot say how long those will keep. If the test vial I sent out comes back good, I have somewhere between 5 and 6 years worth. Everything was purchased around the same timeframe, so which gets used first doesn’t really matter. I have four kits of TR-60 and one TR-10, plus almost a year of compounded, which of course I will use first.

I'd say a "born on date" could (perhaps) make sense for these, but "expiration date" seems arbitrary and without any real basis.
